As many of you know, I like to 'play with my food', experimenting and changing things up! It is always fun to combine two different dishes that are both great by themselves and to make something new and even better like using a taco ingredients as a pizza topping! When I recently came across the idea of combining not just two dishes but three, all very tasty in their own right, into one dish I knew right away that I would have to try making the taco, quesadilla pizzas and soon.

The basic idea behind this recipe is that a taco quesadilla is topped in a pizza like fashion and baked until the cheese on the top has melted. For the taco quesadillas I went with a filling of seasoned ground beef, refried beans, salsa and of course plenty of cheese and I grilled them in a pan until the tortillas were golden brown and crispy. These taco quesadillas are great all by themselves but I continued with the pizza toppings going with a simple salsa and a few more taco filling ingredients and of course lots more cheese!

These taco quesadilla pizzas will disappear in a flash and each is pretty large, being big enough for 2 or more servings. One nice thing about this recipe is that you can either go for the convenience of all store bought ingredients or you can make one or more components from scratch and keep things a little lighter. I can't wait to experiment with a few more quesadilla pizza flavour concepts!

What a great idea for a summertime "pizza"! Rather than having the oven on at a high heat for a longer time, just have the broiler on for a few minutes. Love the photographs, Kevin--wonderful combination of colors.

I am Mexican and proud of my background. This recipe is delicious and can be made using shredded chicken or meat too.Better if flour tortillas are used and heated on a skillet or pan for both sides until little crispy.

Hi, I tried the recipe and it was very nice to look at but the bottom was soggy. I cooked it until golden brown and transferred to baking sheet and broiled it until the cheese melted. Where did I go wrong?

The name of this dish truly does say it all - a delicious combination of 3 comfort foods. This is a great option for gluten-free eaters like me because it would be simple to replace the flour tortillas. Those gluten-free tortillas tend to not fold easily anyway. Why not leave it flat and make this?
